Prospective projects for which we will responsibly seek approval (COA) • Neighbor fence Our driveway and parking area cause headlights to shine directly into the living room of our neighbor to the north. I have met with them and discussed this issue and wish to provide them some light and sound barrier protections. A berm and period -style fence was discussed and plans are being designed to present for COA. ® Portico At some point prior to our purchase of the home, the front door portico was removed and not replaced. We have vintage photos indicating the style and appearance of the portico and are in the process of designing and drawing up plans to present for COA. (image: original portico, current portico) • Corn crib barn Similar to the restoration of the side of the garage, we plan to propose a restoration of the original corn crib. This will entail structural work as well as roofing, and painting of the slatted structure, hopefully with minimal need for replacement of sections. We will present a defined plan in the coming months for a COA. (See images in early section) ® Windmill Vintage photos show a windmill on the property just to the east of the former barn site. It is our plan to get approval to have a vintage or character (non- functional) windmill installed on the farm again. We have begun our search regionally, but will seek a general COA prior to purchase to assure anticipated appearance, height, and suitability. o Silo cap The silo on the property does not have a cap. It also has a non- functional street light at the top of the structure. Our goal is to remove the light, secure the steps to prevent unauthorized access (safety reasons) and restore a vintage -style cap. We have similarly begun our search regionally, but will seek a general COA prior to purchase and installation.
